Liverpool boss now happy with
Cisse
tribalfootball.com - November 23, 2005
Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez says striker Djibril Cisse is now
beginning to show his best form.
"I denied it but two days later they said it again, and threw in
Cisse, but it is not true."
Benitez said: "Djibril was the main striker at Auxerre, and maybe
was playing without the responsibility in defence or
tactically.
"At Liverpool all the others are good players, and he has to work
for them as well as himself.
"I think all the strikers are perhaps a little bit selfish, and
maybe try to play for themselves.
"I think it was difficult to adjust from being the star man at a
club, and then going somewhere with maybe five or six players at
the same level, or even higher.
"But he is learning that now. If you want to win trophies, you need
stars AND workers. The most important thing is not working hard,
but working well."
